You can "dim" items in a native Combobox by preceding it with a "\".

Hi AMakovoz,
1. Multiselect (like in FoxPro intristic ListBox)
Multiselect Combobox??? Ok. I understand how the user would select multiple items, ie. hold down CTRL while selecting items. But how would the combo box know when to retract??
One alternative is to have an invisible superimposed listbox over the combobox. In the combobox's dropdown event, set listbox.visible = .t. and listbox.setfocus(). But then, you still need a way to tell the listbox to hide itself (mimicing the combo box retracting its list portion).
2. Change colors or dims individual items
